Abstract
The migration has started again to make up for Russia’s population ebbs related to the natural population decline, but the positive migration balance is at the lowest level in the past few years. The total number of temporary migrants does not grow either, though the number of those who officially declared their labor migrant status has become somewhat higher; the number of migrants from the Central Asia is growing, while that from Ukraine and Moldova is decreasing.
